2017 Jaguar F-Pace 2.0L Diesel · YL66 AOD

The vehicle shows a consistent pattern of roadworthiness interspersed with wear and tear issues on brakes and steering, culminating in a pass on 13 December 2025. While the record is relatively stable, the most recent test highlights deteriorating dust covers on both the nearside and offside front track rod end ball joints. Earlier records indicate a more critical failure in November 2022 due to dangerous tyre tread depth on the nearside rear, alongside a recurring theme of brake component wear throughout the vehicle's history. A recorded mileage of 96,625 miles over approximately nine years averages to roughly 10,736 miles per year, which is typical for this class of vehicle. This steady accumulation suggests the drivetrain and suspension have been subjected to standard operational stresses. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, indicating the vehicle has remained in active use, which ensures that consumables like brake pads and tyres reach their wear limits at regular intervals. Attention should be directed toward the front steering geometry and the current state of the track rod ends. The damaged dust covers noted in the latest inspection can allow contaminants to enter the ball joints, potentially leading to premature failure. During a test drive, listen for any clicking or knocking sounds when turning the steering wheel at low speeds or traversing uneven surfaces. Additionally, given the 2022 failure for inner tyre wear, check the current tread depth across the full width of all tyres to ensure there are no ongoing alignment issues causing uneven wear on the inner edges. The history of pitted and scored brake discs in 2019, followed by thin rear brake pads in 2021, necessitates a close inspection of the current braking system. Check for any pedal judder or vibrations during deceleration, which could indicate warped discs or uneven surface wear. Ensure the brake pedal feels firm and responsive, and visually inspect the discs for heavy corrosion or scoring on the outer edges, as previously flagged in the vehicle's earlier MOT records.
